insert any hot takes regarding about 64, keep it on topic
I think kahuna made a typo and added an unnecessary t.
I think the game is fantastic, it's incredibly fun in versus even just casually or with items. 1 player content is a little limited and every characters going through the same story mode is a little blah for me but it was the first game after all. I think melee brought a lot of amazing things but I still feel the control way tighter/ responsive in this entry. You don't see people suicide as much in this game.
I think the game overall takes commitment, which takes time. Hense Speedrunners will have more of a learning curve than most other games Like Mario 64 Where you can just practice major tricks to save time, whereas with this game you just have to learn it the old-fashioned way. Maybe If this game had skips/Glitches would it be "entertaining to watch" but the thing you should really look at is how good the game is for its time especially for not having any, or even no Glitches for the past 24 Years of this Game really even be discovered. My speedrunning Side hates that, but in A play-style sense, this Is a really well-put-together Game. Overall I personally give this Game a 9/10
underrated game, people say that it's terrible enough to compare it to brawl but the game is fanstastic to play, melee feels too clunky to control and brawl feels sluggish but 64 is sorta of a middle ground which is pretty good to maneuver with but its far from perfect 1p modes are kinda limited but i think its fun once you speedrun or just get a high score to begin with, heck even i cant beat very hard 1 stock lmfao there's too much wack going on with that mode but again it's kinda lame in terms of content but considering its the first game i think it's ok, vs is pretty fun to play even with tasing (though it takes alot longer to finish)
break the targets and board the platforms are really fun to grind because if you pull off a really hard strat it comes with extreme award but the layout for each character is really unique but when it comes to making new strats it feels like it's too linear for some characters to an extent overall the game is not bad, it carried the entire smash franchise and despite it's flaws (hitstun 0_0) i decided to give it a higher score because it carried the franchise 8/10 (i may be rating this high because i play too much of this game >_>)
Speedran this game since 2018, why the hell am I here?
same here, it feels like a paradox cause we're stuck thinking as to why are we here playing this game
btw krevzz i hope you feel better now =)
Hot Takes?
I don't think there's that much room for strategy innovation left in 1 player (too ignorant to say about bonuses)
Don't worry I might have something hot cooking for 1P, as a whole, But it's going to take time before I can actually get it out, and Finished.
Speedrunning the game itself can be fun.
GRINDING IT, HOWEVER, IS BRUTAL.
tap jump giving better jumps than the c-buttons makes me want to start a new life at the bottom of a well
